With a large terrain map and a faithfully re-created Stalingrad city on the Volga River, the scenery portrays not only the devastation of the fierce battle, but the harsh snowy environment faced by the opposing armies. Fly for either the Red Air Force or the German Luftwaffe and battle for air superiority in the most pivotal battle on the Eastern Front in WWII. The air battles were deadly and exhausting to aircrews on both sides. Remember – Not one step back! There is No Land Behind the Volga!
